Static Label Text from Memory?

Hi,

i have a application that drops all Window Messages like WM_GETTEXTLENGTH etc. to prevent that another application read this control.

Is there a way to get the text from memory ? I have only the control handle.

WinSpy++ tells me, its a normal "Static"-Control Class.

I saw this thread when you posted it a couple of weeks ago and was stumped.

Just now, something has occurred to me that seems frightfully obvious.

Why not sub-class it?

That is to say,

1) Change the WndProc used to handle the window (Use SetWindowLong with GWLP_WNDPROC)

2) Grab the text from it

3) Restore the WndProc as retrieved in step 1.

I was going to suggest using the GetWindowSubclass and SetWindowSubclass, though it seems that this approach may fail since the original WndProc will still be called. With that in mind, I'd use the old (before ComCtl32.dll ver 6) method.
